    The document summarizes key details about three important Civil War battles: Antietam Creek, Gettysburg, and Vicksburg. It lists the military leaders involved, locations, estimated casualties, and short-term effects of each battle. Antietam Creek in 1862 was the bloodiest single-day battle with over 23,000 casualties and saw General McClellan fail to pursue retreating Confederate forces. The 1863 Battle of Gettysburg was a major turning point that halted General Lee's invasion of the North. Union control of the Mississippi River resulted from Grant's 1863 victory over Pemberton at Vicksburg.
